Overall

I really like attending Brigham Young University. The college is clean, and is very fair to the academic system. However, I sometimes do not like the fact that there is not a wide diversity of students here. Mostly everyone is a member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, which definitely has its pros and cons if you think about it.

Academics

My classes are great. All of my teachers have been very considerate and fair. I have never felt left behind by any of them. All of them have been more than willing to meet with me and help me understand criteria if by chance I don't quite understand something.

College Life

Brigham Young University offers many opportunities to grow. It has countless clubs that fit to anyone's special gifts, so if you're only good at one random thing, there's a club for it. Because of the honor code, there is a spirit of safety on the campus that feels really nice. If there is a sport you like, no matter what level you are at in that sport you can participate. All of these organizations provide a social enviornment that almost guarrantees an assurance that you'll have friends and feel included.

Overall

BYU is a great place to get a good education in a safe, clean atmosphere. If you're LDS, it will fit perfectly into the standards that you hold, if you're not, it will lack the typical college party/social atmosphere. Provo is a pretty standard town with nothing exciting happening, but there are a lot of outdoor activities nearby.

Academics

The general ed classes are huge and fine if you're okay learning on your own, but there will be very little teacher interaction. Classes for one's major are typically a normal size (20-30) wherein group discussions, teacher interaction, etc. are quite prevalent.

College Life

The social atmosphere is very active but very different from a typical university. Intramural sports are very popular and a great way to meet others, although teams are typically friends that already know each other. NCAA sports such as football and basketball are very popular and fun to attend. The campus is extremely safe and the facilities and library are top notch.

Academics

The class size depends on the class that you are taking. BYU has a very high academic standard and many of the classes that it offers are very challenging. However, the professors and everyone there are willing to help you with your work. BYU offers many different programs and degrees that give you endless options for classes.

College Life

Everyone at BYU lives with very high standards. Everyone enjoys everyone else no matter who they are. BYU offers hundreds of clubs and organizations that tend to everyones social needs. BYU is a Division I university. Its has incredible sports team. BYU also offers many intramural activities for students to participate in. There is no tolerance for any bullying or putting down of others. This creates a very safe and friendly environment for everyone that attends.
